You know what you're doing. I make you better.

You’ve got Google Ads running. Maybe in-house, maybe through an agency. The problem: you’re not sure if it’s actually optimised, or just active. That’s where fractional consulting comes in. I spend 10 hours a month on your account — audits, strategy reviews, testing sign-off, second opinions. You keep control. You get senior expertise without the full-time cost.

When fractional PPC works best

Not a full replacement. Not a light touch.

I’m not here to rubber-stamp decisions. I audit, I advise, I recommend. If there’s waste, I show you. If your bid strategy is wrong, I explain it. If your keywords are bleeding money, I fix them. But you execute — meaning you keep the learning, and you own the account.

The fractional model

From £300/month for quarterly reviews and strategic advice. Ongoing fractional starts around that too. Exact scope and fee depends on your account size, frequency of reviews, and what you need. We talk through a proposal before you commit.

How it works

  1. Initial auditYou give me account access, I spend 3-4 hours reviewing everything. Structure, keywords, audiences, tracking, bid strategy, creative.
  2. DebriefI tell you what’s working, what’s not, and what to fix. We agree which items matter most.
  3. Ongoing or projectEither I advise monthly as you test changes, or we hit specific milestones. Your call.

Why Rotherham businesses pick advisory

South Yorkshire has strong manufacturing and trades heritage — lots of businesses selling physical products or services locally and nationally. That mix means complex ad strategies. Fractional consulting lets you scale your expertise without hiring full-time.

Frequently asked questions

What's different between fractional and a full-time consultant?

Full-time means I touch your account constantly — bid changes, keyword adds, creative tests, ongoing optimisation. Fractional means you own the day-to-day and I advise strategically, audit regularly, and sign off on major changes.

Do you work with agencies as a second opinion?

Yes. If your agency is running ads and you want a quarterly health check, I do that. Some agencies also hire me as backup for senior-level strategy.

Can you do this for my in-house team?

Absolutely. If you’ve got someone managing ads but they’re new, I can mentor, review, and help them level up. Rotherham businesses often have one person wearing too many hats.

How much of my time does fractional require?

Minimal on your end. You give me access, take my recommendations, and we chat monthly or quarterly. I do the thinking. You make the calls.

What if I need to scale up quickly?

Fractional is a starting point. If you need more hands on the account later — testing, ongoing optimisation, bid management — we can move to ongoing management. No issue there.

Is this suitable for South Yorkshire businesses specifically?

Yes. I understand local economies well — Rotherham’s ecommerce and trades mix, Sheffield’s tech scene, Bolton upon Dearne’s manufacturing. Geographic nuance matters for audience strategy.
